  1. what year is your skyline iv been in love with the skyline gtr r34 since i watched fast and furius 2 and i wish they were in the states i know of one that iv seen with my own eyes it was at a car show here in ny called art de Ferrari it was the only non Ferrari or lambo and it had the biggest crowd around it and it was a gtr34 i couldent belive my eyes i have a list of cars in my head that i want to see in person before i die ad that was one haha another is the gt-r (not the skyline) and i saw one this summer at the local target

     

    Yeah, im not a fan of the "Nissan GTR" or R35. Ive always been in love with r32's and r34's! My plan is to get an R34 GTR as a daily within two years and finish my r32 build into a full non street legal track car. Mine is a 1991 r32 GTS-T, i built a RB25 on the side for it and swapped it in. Low boost puts down 400whp on a DynoDynamics dyno!

     

  2. SICK car! Wish they were in the States so badly. Just out of curiosity, what kind of shows would you have taken it to?

     

     

    Thanks man, I take it too shows like "illmotion" and also there is a show and shine every Wednesday at one of the local casinos. Where if you bring a car you get free chilli, hotdogs and two beers :)

  3. My car is actually up for sale. http://calgary.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-cars-trucks-1991-Nissan-Skyline-Sedan-400whp-RB25-swap-High-Quality-Parts-W0QQAdIdZ508553928

     

    Not in a hurry to sell it.

    Also, the wheels are now dipped black, and it has a comp turbo sticker on the windshield and a "fueled by hate" sticker on the gas cap. I normally don't like decals but I had to get it ready for a show it was in over the summer. Have it a bit of character

    You've got to help to help me get a 32 in the states then!!!

     

    I was looking in the BC craigslist, guys are wanting 10K for a GTS-T!!!!

     

    And is that 6-8K of your Canadian funny money, or US dollars?

     

    -Kyle

    Haha yes I am talking in Canadian funny money. You can actually get an r34 GTST up here for 10k (mind you it may not be 10/10 condition, but r34 non the less). 10k for a r32 GTST up here is very steep, unless of course it is a well built specimen. There are plenty of 32 gtst's in the 4-6k range and r33 gtst's in the 5-8k range.

  5. Yeah, i cant wait for Pathy to hit 25 years old, Stupid Smog, i might figure out a way to register it in some unincorporated county around me, I.E. NO SMOG!! HURRAY!!

     

    But i'm sure Greddy or some of the other guys have figured out a way to beef up the VQ's transmissions, Guys run 1000 HP RB's and TT VQ's all day long. Maybe they all switched to tremec? :laugh:

     

    VQ tranny's are actually a popular swap in the drifting scene. Lots of guys mat them up to Rb's and run 500hp all day long. I think they are more stout than people give them credit for! Also, a r32 GTR in canada for a decent one sets you back about 6-8k right now. I've got my eyes set on picking up a R34 GTR within a year. :D

     

    Thanks for all the love guys!

     

  6. Nice pics man!

     

    My parents are giving me one of their '95 240's, the 5spd hehe, so I'll probably end up doing a RB25det swap. I also considered a 1JZ swap, but I think I want to keep it pure Nissan...

     

    Rock on!!!

     

    Wicked! both the 240 and the R32 are Rb25 swapped and built motors. :D <3 Nissan!

    Here's the 32

  7. Great pics!

    With all the time and work I'm putting into mine, I'll replace the motor for sure. Being in CA I don't think an engine swap is even a possibility with all the limitations the gov't puts on vehicle owners.

    Hey thanks, I appreciate it! That is unfortunate, about the emissions in CA. Thank fully I have it nice up here in Alberta and can do basically whatever I want in terms of motor swaps and exhaust, without getting a slap on the wrist!

    I do too! Great traction, quiet, and excellent wear. Plus not too bad on the wallet.

     

    Sorry to hear that, if you're going to swap, my pipe dream is a Titan motor, might be worth looking into. Or you can always build up the VQ a bit.

     

    I actually cant believe how awsome they are.. when the time comes that im looking for a big tire, like a 35x12.5 or something along those lines i would still consider AT2's to be one of the best choices. Id love to do the VK56 swap just not to sure on how deep i want to dig into my wallet for the pathfinder, after all it gets used and is a trail rig. 10k swap doesn' sound too appealing right now haha. Ive got a few spare motors sitting around so we'll see what i come up with! I definitely wouldn't build up the VQ tho, if i were to stick with VQ it would just be a stock replacement.

  9. :ohmy::ohmy::ohmy: SKYLINE!! GIMME GIMME GIMME!! AND A 240???

     

    I want your cars!!

     

    BTW, how did you go about towing that skyline? GTS or GTS-T? either way, did you end up pull the drive shaft?

     

    Thanks

     

    -Kyle

     

    Haha thanks those are the real projects, those two cars combined are close to 1000hp and yes they get driven. Its a GTS-T so rwd, just pop her in neutral. GTR's and GTS-4 are 4wd.

     

  10. Looks great! We have the same taste in tires, out of curiosity, why does it need a new motor?

     

    Thanks! I absolutly love the AT2's.

     

    It is plagued with the Excessive oil consumption issue that some Vq's have (4L/1200kms) and its also developed a slight knock (which will lead to bigger knock down the road). It has 210,000kms on it right now

  11. I really do love this truck but it needs a new motor soon. I'm debating long and hard what im gonna do, might just swap in another vq35 for simplicity sake, or do an Inline six turbo, either RB or JZ that i have lying around, and then theres always a V8 swap.. We will see what the future has in store.

    Anywho, ENJOY!

  12. You young guys have way too much time on your hands! Y'all need to grow up and get a real mans job where you work so much that you only have time to eat, sleep, work, and cry while you pick at young people with really cool car projects!

    James

    :lol: It hasnt all been sunshine and lollipops. I've owned this car for almost 8 years and been through hell and back with it on more than one occasion, It's hard to find the time of day for it but when you are so passionate about something you will find a way to make it work. 100's and 100's of hours, ml's of blood, L's of Sweat and tears have gone into this thing and I'm just now starting to get it to where I want it to be however it is no where near done. I'm now on the right path in life and changed some my attitude and outlook on some things, so far it has paid off and I couldn't be happier with both my project car and my direction in life lately. Oh and for a job I am a Tax accountant at PricewaterhouseCoopers, this time a year its not out of the ordinary to work 70+hour weeks, so eating, sleeping and working are my main activities right now hahah :FartExplode-vi:

     

    Cheers! Thanks for the love
